Taxation and statutory requirements at a glance

Corporations must pay an annual government levy of USD 300.

Corporations must also declare the place where their financial documents are stored. There is no requirement to file financial accounts.

Additional information

Panama’s legislation allows for registration of private funds. The structure of a private fund differs from that of a corporation. A private fund cannot take part in business activity. It can only act as a property owner: real estate, shares and other companies. A private fund’s property is legally separated from its owners. The fund doesn’t pay taxes from its revenue received outside of Panama.
